 e arrived in Jos in August
three days before the girls started at Hillcrest School. Marie
is in 6th grade and Heather and Anna are in 3rd grade. They
quickly picked up where they left off in many friendships and
were delighted to meet some new classmates.
 lthough all the girls are taking
piano lessons, Marie has begun playing the clarinet and Anna
has enthusiastically started the flute. They are all avid
readers and also participated in the school "Walking Club"
this semester.
 avid has a delightful disposition and is as cute as
you can imagine. He loves helping our gardener water the
plants, riding his red tricycle with wagon in tow, playing
with his train set on the porch, reading Sesame Street books
and watching Barney videos. We are grateful he has been
healthy and is even taller than the twins were at his
age!

orothy has been speaking to ECWA Women's
Fellowship groups to bring awareness of the looming AIDS orphan crisis and
to challenge them to begin caring for the widows and orphans already in
the churches. It is estimated that there will be 10 million orphans
because of AIDS in Nigeria in the next 10 years with over 500,000 in our
Plateau State alone. Please pray with us for God to open the hearts of
women to begin to prepare for this catastrophe and to take heed to the
biblical precautions against AIDS.
